Description

Y @uiten tstr strnt @frn WiLLIAM W. s. ORBETON,4 or HAVERHTLL, .MASSACHUSETTS Letters Patent No. 67,999, dated August 20, 1867.

TO ALL PERSONS T0 WHOM THESE PRESENTS SHALL-COME:
Beit known that I, WILLIAM W. S. ORBETON, of Haverhill, in the county ofEssex, and State of Massachusetts, 4have invented a new and useful Blind-Supporter; and I do hereby declare the sume to be fully described inthe following specification, and represented in the accompanying drawings, ot' whichy Figure 1 represents an end view of o. frame and window-blind having my invention applied to the lat-ter.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal and vertical seetion'taken through the Supporters and hinges.
Figure 3 is a side view oththeA supporter, and
Figure 4 is a top view of it as furnished with an eye.
In the said drawings, A denotes a Window-frame, and B a ,window-blind, as provided with my invention, which consists in an improved device to be appliedto heavy blinds, to hold the Vparts firmly together and prevent sagging thereof. Y
In constructing my improved blind-supporter, I make the same of iron, and form the body portion a thereof` of a cylindrical` shape, and with its front or entering end of a tapering or frusto-conical shape. The said body port-ion is to be of any desirable diameter and length, onehalf an inch inl diameter and six inches in length being suicient for an ordinary blind. I make on the said body part a a male screw, Zr,- which extends nearly its whole length, as seen in g's. 2 and 3. On the upper end of' the said body portion, and at a right angle 'to the axis thereof, I form an elongated head or plate C,` whose inner surface is flat, in order to t closely to the blind-frame. In the outer face of the head or plate C, and in a line passing Aairially through the said part a, I make a shallow elongated slot or recess, c, the Seme being to enable a screw-driver to be applied to it in order to screw the part a 'of the supporter into a hole made for its reception in the blind. The said'plate C may extend an equal distance in each direction from the part a, or its two Yportions may be of unequal length, :is shown in lig. l, and, furthermore, such plate may be provided with one or more'holes going transversely through it, in which one or more screws may be inserted, to securely fit the plate in its true position, although I do not deem such indispensable.` When desirable, the said plateC may constitute onel of the leaves of a hinge, by suitably alixing thereto, and so as to extend at a right angle therefrom, a metallic eye e, the Same being inV order to receive the piutle or journal of the hinge, as shown in figs. 1, 2, and 4.
In applying my invention to a windo\v-blind, a hole is tobe bored in one of the cross-barsor other suitable part blz' the blind, of a diauieter about equal to that of thepart to enter such hole, the depth of such hole to be about eqn-alto the length ofthe saidentering part a. The front end ofthe part t is next to be inserted in th said hole, and, by means ofa screw-driver or other suitable implement inserted in the slot c, the said part a is to be screwed into the hole until the 'inner face of the plate? isl brought into close contact with the frame of the blind. The number of supporters to be applied to an ordinary window-blind isv two; but in case the blind is large and heavy, three o r more may be employed.
By my peculiar construction and application of the blind-supporter, I so bind together andstrengt-hen the parte of the blind as to completely prevent the sagging thereof. Besides,'it can be cheaply-constructed, and is very durable; and, moreover, when provided ivith an'eye, as hereinbet'ore explained, it,vin conjunction therewith, forms'a valuable part of a hinge.
I do not claim a lag-Screw, as I am aware that such is very old, and differs materially from my invention; but having described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is as follows:
The Said blindsupporter, made' substantially as described, as a. nevi article of manufacture.
W. W. S. ORBETON.
